John972 Doomyk minibaer12 have you done a play through without going on the heist? This is new info right?

You don't have permission to view the spoiler content. Log in or register now.

A couple of questions to promote thoughts in general now I *think* I've seen every render/done all the paths:

- If Nika has been charged before, was it over the violent incident? Or over Summer? Or one and the same?
- When he mentions to Amber (regarding her question that he blames himself for what happened to Summer) that "it wasn't my fault ...I had no other choice", is this perhaps something he got charged over?
- Have you noticed that immediately after the Summer incident he gets violent at school from being dead inside, but when we enter the story he is depressed: did the violent incident beat the violence out of him?

Regarding Zane relationships:
- Amber and Bella know Zoey, who knows Katie very well, so chances are Bella also is friendly to some part with Katie, especially with her connection to Ayua
- Who is Charlotte really? (Charlie) Jenna mentions that she can set up Nika with Robin, and Molly asks if Robin is Nikas GF if you have the rumour going. It seems Robin is someone important - Molly seemed excited to hear something about Robin. And the venue for the bookclub, is that Charlie's place? Or a hired venue? Or Elena's house? It feels like Robin walked down from her room. But there was also a security guard when NIka walks in, so where is this?
- Robin talks about 'Adri' so Adrianna is a friend of Robin and Sasha's well enough known to have a nickname - I think that's old info, but I didn't notice it before.
- Noji vs all these high society figures, which we already knew, but now the golf course thing is all but confirmed, and I'm pretty sure is said somewhere Noji has played golf with Nick, we have Noji knowing Elena, Scarlet, Katie (by extension Leia as the last time Katie and Leia came to the bookclub was a year ago), Amber, Emilia (all of whom are likely in WiaB), Claire, Charlie, potentially Marla. Also, I think Noji mentions Bella by name before being introduced to her - if you don't go on the heist, she mentions what Nika did to Bella as the reason for sending Nika to AMber. Long winded list, but Noji apparently knows everyone important in Wollust. So there is no hiding Nika from them, we just don't know her connection. Jenna's observations that Noji 'did the right thing' does suggest that all the well to do people know what's going on.

- I've already mentioned goth girl but I also notice her blonde friend stares at Nika quite a few times, and is in the locker room scene if Marla rescues Nika.
- Goth girl highlights the importance of the earring again, so we have Sasha, Ayua, and potentially goth girl wondering about it. If you're not on Bella's path, in ch4 Nika jokes about getting detective Nora on the case (one of the twins) - cute extra fact.

- Dwight as all but confirmed Petrova, because Sasha doesn't have a boyfriend (no NTR in SG according to Ocean's original intent, plus the fact the women at the bookclub tease Nika and Sasha, Kelly's desire to breed Sasha etc.) and she's had a hard time with men recently, plus votes to not have any new male members, so kinda an ice queen. Makes sense that Dwight has carried Ayua home before as Sasha and Ayua are close.

- Demi Hill knowing about Nika's past performance and saying that if he doesn't try out for the first team she'll put his name down herself (crushed balls path), knowing his past. Is part of Hill's plan that's approved from high up to get a new functional team including Nika's past, and that's why Nika and Nami got a scholarship (assuming the reason they didn't have a choice is because they got a scholarship that Noji couldn't refuse). So is Nika's presence actually part of the plan, and they're trying for something specifically involving him?

- Regarding rumours, if you get the locker room incident with Nora, there's new rumours at the training. Not sure if that was there before. So I guess there are rumour meters in the background, the rumours open certain paths, probably affecting the manwhore route.


- is this checklist of Claire's a list of plot devices Ocean will include? LOTS of potential fun there:

anyone have the patch of the updated steam version or full game?
The recent compressed version is patched, search the thread, I've already said this on multiple pages, like earlier on this one.

The compressed version is all I bother with - my internet doesn't allow me to download the bigger files, and there's very little noticeable (I don't notice it anyway) loss in picture quality. In general, search any thread for the word 'compressed' by user 'SonsOfLiberty'. He is the one of the heros who do the hard work (some threads it will be a different compressor). Or you can search threads by filehost. That works well too.
Get used to this search I've described, it saves you time and keeps you sailing in all threads (y)

Wow lot's of changes on the steam version, not liking it much. Could have at least changed that ridiculous flock of seagulls haircut on the MC.
Reached out a hand to touch your face
You're slowly disappearing from my view
'Pearing from my view
Reached out a hand to try again
I'm floating in a beam of light with you
A beam of light with you
And I ran, I ran so far away
I just ran, I ran all night and day
And I ran, I ran so far away
I just ran, I couldn't get away

About the patch. Can someone who communicates with Ocean carefully ask whether patches will be released at all next season?

Season 2 - Chapter 1 - Dev Log #6
Just now
Hello,

So... The first Dev Log of Season 2 with Season 1 behind us... It feels good.

I have just added the Android version to the pinned release post of Season 1 and released the two soundtrack packs on Steam.

50% of the revenue will go to the music artist. From my various talks with different artists, I know how little (if anything) most of them make.
I wish I could've done the same for Vesky, but he's with Musicbed, so that's not going to happen.


The Intangible has been with me for a very long time, and I'd consider " " as much "SG" as most of the Vesky songs.


I only found him recently, but he was a pleasure to talk to. His enthusiasm and the fact that we're both living in Berlin only added to it. And I really liked "Flüsternde Schatten."

Sadly, I still used the old contract for Late Kids. I find them criminally underrated, and I will soon contact them to re-license the music for Season 2 and use my new contract. If they accept, I will do the same for them when S2 releases on Steam.

GOG and EPIC
Season 1 will be released on GOG on the 17th, and Epic Games on the... Yeah... Umm... They found my Steam page and are forcing me to add achievements to Epic.

Epic:
GOG:

It's a pain in the ass to add the achievements to Epic. But hopefully, I'll finish that before the 17th.
(Both pages should be available in Germany.)

I will ask them for an exception if I can't get it to work. (I saw several posts of Devs who didn't have to do it.)

Season 1's pricing and the Serene Tier.
Let me also address the new Tier. I've mentioned through 2023, that Season 1 will match the pricing of the digital storefronts.
GOG, for example, checks my other stores and matches the pricing. I can't put the pricing there myself, so I had to adjust it.

Season 2 - Chapter 1 will, of course, be available for the Summer tier. ($5) Nothing will change to the Season 2 access until it is released on the storefronts.

SG's release on Steam was nice, but the greatest thing is that no more reworks are left. I can't even describe how "light" I feel.
By far, my personal highlight.
I, of course, still stand behind the reworks. Doing it was the right choice and now that it's done, it actually feels like I finished an update for once.
Previously, I finished, for example, Chapter 4, and I knew that another 2k renders were waiting for me with the rework... And by the time that was done, I was already under some pressure to release the next update.
It slurped me mentally. But the slurping is over.


Summer's Gone - Constellations
Season 2 - Chapter 1

Season 2 gets a fancy name and a fancy new UI.
Previews
My favorite camgirl.


"Must protect."

Besides the new main menu UI, the whole dialogue display has been upgraded. (Of course, Messe created it.)
This is how it would look in Season 2.


It's centralized now, and the choice menu also looks really nice. (I'll preview it in the next log.)
Quite a huge portion of S2-Chapter 1 is under non-disclosure. Previews will be limited for a while.
But in the next log, I will show some Bellchen previews.

I think next week, I've recharged my social batteries and will start contacting a few new music artists and the ones I want to take into Season 2.
This doesn't include Grace Mesa, etc.
Due to Season 2's adult nature, we won't be hearing them again—at least until I have enough "weight" to get custom deals with the big music companies.

I'll see you in two weeks!
Could someone please upload the Android version mentioned in this post? Thank you in advance to the hero who does!

Is there going to be a non steam version that doesn't butcher the game?
No, the patreon and the steam versions are the same.

"Are breasts legally considered genitals?" No. Breasts are not reproductive organs.
at least according to the post from Cornell university.
Yossa delights in not adding /s for maximum fun :coffee::whistle: But now I see yossa has again typed faster than me, continuing on his wild spree of funs.

I disagree about Zara and Nadia. Nika is smart enough to realise that their revenge was caused by his actions. And he didn't have a problem with it except that they used Nami against him. So instead of escalating the situation further, he put a stop to it and let them know they crossed the line.

The only LIs for whom his dislike is justified are Bella and Vanessa. In Bella's case, it's just an excuse to quickly bring them together through a simulated conflict that is quickly resolved. In Vanessa's case... well, I've already said that I think about the possibility of turning them against each other if it doesn't block her path. I want it so much. :devilish:
Yeah, i understand you.

I understand the revenge of Zara and Nadia, Nika piss them off and they deserve the posibility of revenge, but i think handcuff him, undress him and Zara putting her foot in his mouth is worse than play them like fools and rip Zara´s shirt (Zara exposed boob is serious too , even if was unintentionally).

So, what i want to say is: yes, i understand why Nika wants to stop their "battle" but for me the measures Zara and Nadia made in their revenge are a little too far, and knowing Nika is a guy who doesn´t give a fuck and doesn´t let people fuck with him i´not sure why he would be friendly with them, okay, i understand if he "relax the environment" a little but play with Nadia in the board game or have a basket match with Zara in the final chapter... If you are in their path okay but if not for me seems forced :unsure:

This about Zara seems contradictory to me too, going back to Zara putting her foot in Nika´s mouth , she warns him that if he tries again to humilliate her she is going to punish him, okay, but i have played two times, one path being friendly with Zara and following her path and other path trying to humilliate her and confront her when the occasions appear and Zara is still being friendly with Nika and they continue to make plans like if nothing happened. How is she going to punish him if she isn´t bother with Nika´s behaviour? Maybe Zara isn´t so dangerous like she tried to look? Or is just that Ocean deleted the dark path and that´s why those options can´t happen? We will see more in the second season but i don´t know, seems contradictory to me.

About Bella yeah, i love her path and their connections but in my second path Nika went with Bella to Mario´s house for revenge for what he (and his friends) said about him when he was with Milla and you can´t still being mad with Bella, this event force you to be closer to her. About Vanessa yeah... I liker her because is a character who seems to have nasty fetishes, and i love that, i will try to turn them againts each other in one of my paths too :devilish:

I think, in Zara's case this behaviour is acceptable, like the MC says, Noji's wellbeing is more important, then the revenge.
Yeah, very true, i can go with that, but like i said in my respond above i think is too much for let it slide.
But yeah, i can´t discuss about that, Nika´s love for Noji and Nami can overcome any problem.

But Nadia has nothing to do with Noji or Nami directly so, why forgive her so easily. Or even Bella, Nami hates her, she said she is still planning a vengeanze for her, it would be a good moment for join her. I suppose we will see this in the second season.

I still will refuse to forgive Robin it's too early for me maybe I will later for Sasha content if I have too but as of right now nope she is not forgiven.
Absolutely right. I forgave her for a favor, i hope this favors Nika is getting for people be usefull...
In other game i would say this favors are going to be sexual, but in SG i´m pretty sure are going to be more important than that.

alright so i went into this knowing the game was not gonna have any real H scenes and had accepted my fate and so long as it was reasonable and it was actually mainly character building I could acknowledge and understand it but even if the MC is the most demi of demisexuals how does any human in the universe have a girl in your bed, you have contemplated the fact that you might be in love with her, you are both just in your underwear her with her bra off and she says to you "I'm horny" and your only response is to look awkward and apologise. Like literally what? How does that even happen and why did the scene not progress there? No human alive wouldn't have at least tried to help her out or something even if you arent gonna go all in but nah he just sits there like a stump in the woods. I was fine with it honestly when he had rejected stuff before that point because it was reasonable to believe, it being with girls he wasn't familiar with or uncomfortable situations but like this is your actual girlfriend MC are you a brick or what?
Exactly what i thought in that moment, okay if Noji and Nami still in the house is logical do nothing, but if not... Come on Nika, put your fingers or mouth to work, he can do that...

But i think Noji and Nami were in the house, i think that´s why he didn´t do nothing.

I know that, but on the list:

- Stefanie is an LI, so she will be banged :sick: which also checks female professor gets banged by student, and probably impregnated. Coach Hill is probably lewdable, as I guess Ms Harrison is as well.
- Bella will get in a fight, probably more than once, likely with Kate.
- Given the lockeroom talk about cute emo boy having a giant schlong, and Ayua asking Bella for nudes, his dick pics'll flow around campus
- Police will probably arrest Bella, Nika or Mila at some point
-Multiple cheerleaders getting banged - the locker room scene with Nora, Miriam and Kate is super likely to be repeated as a lewder event.
- Getting drunk with the professors - Nika will likely find out what happens with Cindy in a RP session
- Witness two students doing it - I can't imagine Ocean will have rumours about what happens in locker rooms spreading and miss the opportunity for risky public sex.
- STD outbreak SHOULD be inevitable, but porn logic would mean there's a chance that no one ever catches anything. But the manwhore MC route will likely have lewds gallore with no romance.
- hookup with a student, probably while doing CPR on Nika, can imagine Claire will be lewdable, get in a fight with Bella, and Amber comes down to berate Claire, and Claire gets fired. Plausible.
- Cheating gossip will happen, as gossip spreads so quickly for any events on campus already.
- peeing pants in public? my money's on Ayua getting smashed on the opening of the bar.
- Professor gets breast augmentation - convenient excuse to render someone larger than Helen from WiaB, it WILL happen...

- Is Stahl the only male professor we've seen? I'm okay if that gets left off. Do Not Want.

Free the boobs, being sober, the yogurt or the used condom... well, those have humour potential. It's almost like Ocean has written a list of Steam achievements and is projecting them on Claire. I'm going to keep tabs on this over the next decade :coffee::sneaky:
Shit dude, too much things!!!
Definitely you did a good job here and in your other post.

I can´t answer practically nothing because i have the same doubts like you know, but there are some thing i find very interesting, for example:

-"Ayua asking Bella for nudes, his dick pics'll flow around campus": Who do you think would be capable to do that to Nika? I think if we are in Bella path we can skip her, and Ayua doesn´t seems like that type of girl :unsure:
Maybe if Nika is antagonized with some girl and for whatever reason this girl has his nudes could happen but i find it very diffcult to happen. (But as always i love spicy things and problems in main characters plot so i´m in for that)

-"I can't imagine Ocean will have rumours about what happens in locker rooms spreading and miss the opportunity for risky public sex.": This needs to happen, is a college and all the people are horny as fuck (except Nika).

-Cheating gossip will happen: I´m in too, this fits perfect with a college, and i want even cheat on someone, just for see what happens and how the college reacts. Maybe even if we can do Nika cheat to someone and use it like a revenge (yes, i know, i´m obsessed with revenge :LOL:). Just imagine the reputation of some popular girls like Nadia or Bella going to the trash becouse Nika has cheated.

- peeing pants in public?: Wait, What? Why you think is someone going to pee in his/her pants? :oops: That would be absolutely bad for the reputation...
